CITY AND. NEIGHOIUM INTILLIGENCI.
64 Parson" Bro Willow.
This eccentric genius, who has been
local preacher, editor, politician' and
martyr to the - Union cause in - Tennessee,
reached the city from , the West at four
o'clock yesterday afternoon and was es
corted to his hcitel in a four horse carriage,
accompanied by the municipal .dignitaries
of bOth cities, who went to Wood's Run
to meet him. He was on his way East to
make arrangeMents for the publication of
his fortheeming hook and along continued
telegraphiccorrespcindefice witlithe Young
Men a Library Association proved inef
fectual in inducing him to remain until
this evening to address our citizens. Con-
Seeuently but short notice of, his address
last night could he given, but by eight
o'clock Concert Hall was filled with an
enthusiastic audience, who listened atten
tively to an address of over an . hour, in
dulging in frequent applause at quaint or
patriotic remarks. Those who have read
Iris speeches elsewhere will have a fair
idea of that of last evening. He pleased
the audience and gave a pretty comprehen
siVe history of himself and the secession
movement in Tennessee. The entire pro
ceeds of tlie leCture, a snug sum. were
handed over to the Parson, and he left
last night.
In the Rattle at Pittsburg Land.
Among the Pit tsburghers who were in the
battle at . Pittsburg Landim , Tenn , were
Capt. Samuel F. Barr and Capt Bart G.
Leeper,lOth well known river men. They
were attached to the First and Second Ken
tucky regiments; Barr as Captain in the
former. and Leeper as Lieut. Colonel in
the latter. Col. Leeper received a ball
"thrbugh his clothing and a sechnd struck
the hilt of his sword, which saved his life.
Captain Barr escaped without injury.
Capt. Hobert Darragh Adams. who was
killed during the first days fighting while
at the head of his company, in the Fifty-
Seventh Ohio. formerly resided in this city
and was for some years a clerk for Hamp
ton,. Smith .1z• Co., drygoods dealers, Wood '
'street. His relatives reside in Beaver
county.
We also see it stated that some other
residents of this county were killed in the
same engagement, viz : Parker, John Al
len and Thomas Davis, all late of Robi
son-toWnship, All6gheny County. T.
Logan, also late of said township i is either
killed or captured. Ile belonged to the
Eighth Ohio regiment., which was captured
en masse. His father, 7 - ohn Logan, was
n. solder of the war of 1812, and was well
known as a citizen of Robison township.
His brother, John A. Logan, is a teacher
in 1.7143 n township.
Did not get Off.
- Several uionihs ago a-man named Wright,
residing at _Zelienople. Butler county, ob
tained a large amount of goods by false
pretences—using a note for the purpose,
which, although calling for 5250 00, was
found to have been worthless. He was
pursued to Alleghedy city, where a warrant
was sued out before Mayor Drum, and the
fugitiye was arrested. He had made all
his' arrangements for going to California,
and would have been off in a short time if
his pursuers had not made their appear
ance. He was properly secured . , and his
captors have started,back with him.
Dr. Eisinter on Catarrh.
We give to-day a letter from Dr. Robert
Hunter, whose talent as a physician is
recognized wherever he is known,* on the
cure of catarrh, and bespeak for it a care
ful perusal, asking for it the profound at
laation of all classes. The style of these
letters must convince all who read them
that the writer believes what he writes and
that his system has ninny advantages.
Hit' success is the strongest evidence that
he can perform all he promises and we
should, if suffering from any pulmonary
disease, have no hesitation in trusting
ourselves in his care.

Pennsylvania Hospital have resolved to

Telhat LUditoi of thi Air
I. come to co nsideration of
Catarrh " . 1 - ,
Prom.the frequency of catarrhal affec
tions as fore-runners of gennine triberCular
consumption, the relationship -between
"colds, coughs and consumption" is
questionably that of- cause and effect.—
Too much attention ,cannot be given to
this fact.
By " Catarrh," commonly called " a
cold in the head" I mean an inflammatory- -
affection of the mucous membrane! that
linty the nose. This . membrane extends
downwards, lining alio the throat, larynx,
windpipe and bronchial tubes. We
breathe through the. nose; hence that part
of the mucous membrane which lines the
nasal passages first receives injury from
sudden changeS of temperature in the air,
or from any irritating matter it may con
tain. There are two kinds of Catarrh,
"acute" and "chronic.'! . •
The symptoms of " acute Catarrh" are
first, a sense of heat and stuffing in the
nose. You find it impossible to breathe
through the nostrils, although there is no
secretion—the membrane is "dry." If
you could now examine the lining of the
nostril, you would find it red, swellen, in
creased in thickness and very irritable. Try
to inhale the cold air through it, and the
attempt excites " sneezing.
This irritation may extend from the lin
ing of the nose to the frontal sinus; when
we have "PAD:" over the " FOREHF:AD."
It may also extend through the lachrymal
canals, which convey the tears from the
eyes, closing them up as it has done the
nose. In that event the secretion'of tears
will be increased, and in consequence of
the closing of the tear passages, will run
over the cheeks. The akin is hot, the
pulse is increased in frequency, and a
shivering or chillness is felt over the body.
After a time a clear, irritating water is, se
creted in large quantities, by the inflamed
membrane, and almost runs from-the nose
and eyes, producing redness and smarting
wherever itkonies in contact with the skin.
Gradually this acrid waterbeeotnes thicker
and less irritating; of a straw color, and
then yellow. As this change takes place,
the irritation subsideS; the nostrils again
become free; the stuflingin the head passes
otf and the secretion diminishes, until the
health ot' Outpatient is tally re-established.
This is the usual course of what is called a
co 1.1) lx TIIE READ," or -" CATARRH,"
when confined to the nose. But - it may
possibly extend to the throat, involving the
facus tonsils and uvula, and then itTs called
a " SORE THROAT:' If the tonsils swell
very much, the disease is called "ourvsy.'•
A simple cold in the head may also pro
ceecralong the eustachian tubes of the ear,
and so cause " DEAFNESS:" or clown the
gullet to the stomach,- deranging -"DinEs
vox. • The most common course of
catarrh, however, is to creep insidiously
down to the lungs, when it is popularly
known as a " cot.n IS TUE cuEsr 2 : and
professionally by thO Mime of " intoN
corrfs
CHRONIC CATARRH follows the " acute "
form, and is generally the direct ,conse
quence of leavusg a "simple cold" to cure
itself. It iii met with in several forms, in
the "first" we have merely - a discharge of
yellow or straw colored mucus; which ac
cumulates in the poisterior nares, or above
, and behind the soft palate, and is "hawk
' ed" and'clearedTrom time to time diming
the day. In the " second •' there are small
sores formed on the inside of the nose,
and the secretions hecomeAryitnd hard,
requiring almost constant attention to keep
the nose free. In the "third" a false
membrane is secreted from the - diseased
lining, which the patient removes from time
to time. In the fourth ''t.lte secretion
from the head Amyl down into the throat,
and the patient is frequently observed to
"snuff up and hawk.' Often the mucous
membrane becomes ulcerated, and the dis
charge is then thin, yellow and like "pus."
In this form, too, there is often loss of
smell, and the discharge has an'offensiee
odor—especially is this the case when the
ulceration eats through the membrane to
the bone. I have several such cases now
under treatment, and among them a little
girl only six years old. Generally, during
the summer months the active symptoms
of Chronic Catarrh become mild, but reg
ularly return in an aggravated form on the
approach of winter. Those suffering from•
Clirmiic - Catarrh art very subject to take
cold and will have one or more attacks
every winter.
Consumption has several stages. It has
a first, or forming " stage; a middle, or
"confirmed" stage. The lungs do not 'in
come immediately stuffed with tubercles,
or corroded by foul ulcers. It is only af
ter months, and often years of irritation—
of slow insidious progress—from the slight
"catarrh" to the seated " bronchitis " to
the first deposition of a little speck of "tu
berculous matter" iu a single : lolile; from
the first depositions of tubercle to the fill
ing up of a whole lobe, or a • whole lung,
with this matter, and its festering and bur
rowing among the delicate air cells, until
the whole of the lung diseased becomes
reduced to a mass of hopeless disorganiza
tion—that this dreaded malady reaches its
last and final stage. The error is too wide
spread among the people, and too general
even among physicians, to regard consump•
tion as a disease, marked not only by 'cough'
but by the expectoration of "pus" by "hec
tic fever," "nightliveats" and wasting of
flesh and strength. In other words to ap
ply the name consumption only to the last
stage'of the disease. Were this otherwise
we should not have to listen- with feelings
of pity and sorrow to siieh extiresiicifis as
" it's only a catarrh, " ." the:diseaie is all
in the throat," or it's only .a alight "bron
chial affection." ' Alas! iheroiare few who
suffer from these affections, trifling and
unimportant as they„mayseem, that do

Suit of Pierce Butler for false Imprisonment
Recapitulation of the Circuin-
stances.
A writ from the Supreme Court irtL
served yesterday afternoon, at the Conti
nental Hotel. by Deputy Sheriff Helmbold,
upon the Hon. Simon Cameron, at the
suit of Mr. Pierce Butler, of this city, for
tre4p:c , i vi et arnas, assault and battery,
and false imprisonment on the 19th Au
gust last, Mr. Cameron at the time being
Secretary of War.
Mr. Butler, it was rumored, was at the
time suspected of a correspondence with
the Rebel States unfavorable to the cause
of the Union,and during a moment ot
pub
excitement was arrested by order of Mr.
Cameron without any process of law, and
without any assigned cause, his trunks,
drawers, wardrobe and entire apartments
searched, and private papers taken posses
sion of by U. S. Marshal Millward and four
associates.
His office was also examined, the books
and papers taken. and in one hour from
the arrest, Mr. Butler was on his wav to
New York with the Marshal and his ilia).
assistants, all armed with revolvers, who
conducted him that evening to Fort La
fayette. A suhseg i nent application on the
part of Mr. Butler's friends to the Secreta
ry of War, to ascertain the reason a iris
action, thoinili in a measure answered, in
duced no satisfactory response.
Mr. Butler asserts that nothin ! , was
found among his papers to call in question
his loyalty to the Government.
He does not wish to exhibit personal
to Mr. Cameron, and thereibre.
in simplyissuing a writ. refrained from tut
' arrest and the •tecontpanying nece.s-itr. oti
the part cif Mr. Cameron, of glvin. ,
security. Mr. Butler wishes merely to test
the constitutionality of his imprisonment.
The writ is returnable on the 24 of• :\ lay
next. but the case may not be tried until
November. his counsel arc Mr. ;4,Orgi?
M. Wllartoll find Mr. St. Geor ge
Campbell.
Mr. Butler was liberated in five weeks
front the time of his ineareeration, without
reason being given for his discharge any
more than. for his arrest : and speaks of
being locked with nine other gentlemen in
a cell twenty-six feet long by fourteen
wide, in one of the casemates of Fort I.a
fayette, where he was allowed egress only
at meals, and during one hour in the morn
ing and evening, for exercise in the quad
rangle of the fort.
The fellow occupants of Mr. Butler's
cell were the Hon. Charles J. Faulkner,
Mr. James W. Wall. of Burlington : Mr.
Thomas S. Serrill, of Philadelphia : Mr.
McMaster, of the New York Freema
Journal: Mr. De Bebitm, of Wilmington,
N. C., and others whose. names Mr. But
ler does not at present recall.
He makes uo objections to his treat
ment at the fort, beyond the fact of con
finement. The prisoners were allowed
the perusal of public journals: and although
the food was simply of soldiers' rations,
those who chose to pay for better fare
were allowed the prtviiege of consum
ing it.

HEADQUARTERS DISTRICT OF WEST /
TENNESSEE,
• Pittsburg, April 6th, 1862.
Capt. N. H. McLean, A. A. Gen. Dept
uf Missouri, St. Louis:
CAPTALS—It becomes my duty again to
report another battle fought between the
two great armies, one contending for the
maintenance of the best government ever
devised, and the other for its destruction.
It is pleasant to record the success of the
army contending for the former principle.
On Sunday morning our pickets were
attacked and driven in by the enemy. fin
modintely the five divisions stationed at
this place were drawn up in line of battle.
to meet thent. The battle soon waxed warm
on the left and centre. varying at times to
all parts of the line.
The most contiimoit, tiring of le u,ketry
tool artillery ever in•ard on this continent
S kept op until the enemy Imr•
ing forced the entire line to fall back near
ly hslf way from their camps to the laud-
.1t a late hour in the afternoon a ile,T,r
ate effort was made by the .1:1 erily to 111 MI
our left and get possession of the landing,
transports. e. This i.oiut was guarded
ht the gunlatats Tylor and Lexington.
Captains Gwien and Shirkusen command
ing four 20-ponnder Parrott guns and a bat
tery of rifled guns.
As there is a deep and iinpassable ravine
for artillery or . cavalry, and very difficult
lbr intitntry, no troops were stationed at.
this point. except the necessary artillerists
and a stnall infantry force for their sup
port. Just at this moment the advance of
Major General eolninti, and a 'art
of the divis'on of i;eneral Nelson, arrived,
the two rienerals named both being pres
ent.
n ad Va nen. was inunediately made upon
the point of attack, and the enemy were
SCII , II driven hack. In this repulse, much
is tine to the presence of the gun boats Ty
lor and Lexington. and their aide com
manders. Capts. Gwinn and Shirkursen.
During the night, the division under
Generals 'Crittenden and McCook arrived.
General Lew. Wallace. at erittnpls Land
iny.. -ix miles below. was ordered at an
early hoar in the morning t t hold his di
vision in readiness to be moved in any di
mction to which it may he ordered. At
abnut eleven o'clock nu order was deliver
ed to move it up to Pittsburgh, lint owing
to its being led by a circuitous route it did
not arrive in time to take part in Sunday's
action.
During the night all was quiet, and feel
ing that a great moral advantage would be
gained by becoming the attacking part, an
advance was ordered as soon as day
dawned. The result was the gradual re
pulse of the enemy at all points of the line
from morning until probably live o'clock
in the afternoon, when it became evident
the enemy was retreating. Before the
close of the action. the advance of General
T. J. Woods' division arrived in time to
take part in the action.
My force was too much fatigued from
two days hard fighting, and excused in
the open air and the drenching rain dur
ing the intervening night, to pursue im
mediately. The night closed in cloudy,
and with heavy rain, making the roads its-
practicable for artillery by next morning.
General Sherman. however, followed
the enemy, finding that the main part of
his army had retreated in good order.
Hospitals of the enemy's wounded were
Fund all along the road, as far as the pur•
suit was mode. Dead bodies of the enemy
ami-maitv graves, were also found.
ench3se herewith the report of General
Si!erman, which will explain more fully
the result of the pursuit. Of the part
taken by i•ach seperate command, 1 cannot
take special notice in this report, but will
do so more rally when the reports of Di
vision Commanders are Landed in.
General Buell coining on the field with
a distinct army, long under his command.
and which did such efficient service, com
manded by himself in person on the field.
will be much better able to notice those of
his command who particularly distinguish
ed themselves than I possibly can.
I feel it a duty. however, to a gallant
and able officer. Brigadier General W. 'l'.
Sherman, :o make a special mention. He
not only was with his command during the
entire two dayS' action.• but displayed
great judgment and skill and manage
ment of his men. Although severely
wounded in the hand on the first day, his
place was never vacant. He was again
wounded, and had three horses killed-un
der him.
In making this mention of a gallant ot
fieer. no disparagement is intended to com
manders of other divisions : Maj. Generals
John A. m•Clernand and Lew. Wallace,
and Brigadier Generals S. A. Hurlburt.
Prentiss and W. H. L. Wallace. all of whom
nmintained their places with credit to them
selves and the cause.
Gen. Prentiss was taken prisoner in the
first day's action, and General W. H. Wal
lace severely, pr bably mortally wounded.
His Assistant. Adjutant General Capt. W.
M. Mitchell, is missing, probably taken
prisoner.
Aly personal staff are all deserving of
particular mention, they having been en
gaged, during the entire two days, in car
ryine orders to every part of the field. It
consists of Col. J. D. Webster, Chief of
Staff; C01...1. R. M'Piierson, Chief
of Engineers, assisted by Lieuts. W. L.
B. Jenny and Wm. Kossae: Capt. J. A.
Rawlings, A. A. General; W. S. Hilyer,
W. It. llawlev, and C. B. Lagow, Aids
de Camp; COL G. Pride, Volunteer Aid,
and Capt. J. P. Hawkins. Chief Com
missary, who accompanied me upon the
field.

--/.

r .! :: .
The medical department, under the'di
rection of Surgeon Hewitt. medical direc
tor, showed g reat energy in providing for
the wounded and in getting them from the
field, regardless of danger.
Col. Webster was placed in special
charge of all the artillery, and was con
stantly upon the field. He displayed; as
always heretofore, both skill and bravery,
and at least in one instance he was the
means of placing an entire regiment in
position of doing most valuable service,
and where it would not have been but for
his exertions.
Lieut. Col. McPherson, attached to any
staff as Chief of Engineers, deserves more
than a passing notice for his activity and
courace.
All the grounds beyond our camps for
miles have been reconnoitered by him, and
plans carefully prepared under his super
vision: giving accurate information of the
nature of the approaches to our lines. Du
ring the two days' battle he was constant
ly* in the saddle, leading the troops as they
arrived to points where their services were
most required. During the engagement
he had one horse shot under him.
The country will have to mourn the loss
of many brave men, who fell at the battle
of Pittsburg. or Shiloah, more properly. -
Our exact loss in killed and wounded
will be known in a day or two: at present
I can only give its approximity at 1,500
killed and 3,500 wounded. Our loss of ar
tillery was great, many pieces being disa
bled by the enemy's shots, and some los
ing all their horses and many of the men;
there were probably not less than,twe hun
dred horses killed. The loss ofthe enemy
in killed and left on'the field was greater
than ours. In wounded this. estimate can
not be madeistif.maisy of them-must hive
